Abstract
Das moderne Finanzsystem ist komplex, dynamisch, hochdimensional und oftmals nicht stationär. All diese Faktoren stellen große Herausforderungen beim Messen des zugrundeliegenden Finanzrisikos dar, das speziell für Marktteilnehmer von oberster Priorität ist. Hochdimensionalität, die aus der ansteigenden Vielfalt an Finanzprodukten entsteht, ist ein wichtiges Thema für Ökonometriker. Ein Standardansatz, um mit hoher Dimensionalität umzugehen, ist es, Schlüsselvariablen auszuwählen und kleine Koeffizientenen auf null zu setzen, wie etwa Lasso. In der Finanzmarktanalyse kann eine solche geringe Annahme helfen, die führenden Risikofaktoren aus dem extrem großen Portfolio, das letztendlich das robuste Maß für finanzielles Risiko darstellt, hervorzuheben. In dieser Arbeit nutzen wir penalisierte Verfahren, um die ökonometrischen Maße für das finanzielle Risiko in hoher Dimension zu schätzen, sowohl mit nieder-, als auch hochfrequenten Daten. Mit Fokus auf dem Finanzmarkt, können wir das Risikonetzwerk des ganzen Systems konstruieren, das die Identifizierung individualspezifischen Risikos erlaubt.
Modern financial system is complex, dynamic, high-dimensional and often possibly non-stationary. All these factors pose great challenges in measuring the underlying financial risk, which is of top priority especially for market participants. High-dimensionality, which arises from the increasing variety of the financial products, is an important issue among econometricians. A standard approach dealing with high dimensionality is to select key variables and set small coefficient to zero, such as lasso. In financial market analysis, such sparsity assumption can help highlight the leading risk factors from the extremely large portfolio, which constitutes the robust measure for financial risk in the end. In this paper we use penalized techniques to estimate the econometric measures of financial risk in high dimensional, with both low-frequency and high-frequency data. With focus on financial market, we could construct the risk network of the whole system which allows for identification of individual-specific risk.
